Report Group by Object Type?

Avatar

Level 10

The default grouping for Reports is "Folder & Type" I would like a grouping that is just "Type" meaning "Object Type" but there is no option to select Object Type as a grouping, and Report Type groups them into Aggregate, Matrix and List. So how do I group by Object Type, without the folders?

It's just plain "type" (Report | Type, as opposed to Report | Report Type). The trick though, is that it may come in with a valueformat you don't like. If you set up the grouping and hate what you're getting, just switch it over to textmode, and try objCodeMessage as your valueformat line instead of whatever it gave you (string?)

@Jill Ackerman‚ I used this textmode to create a useful grouping by type:

group.0.linkedname=direct

group.0.namekey=uiObjCode

group.0.valuefield=uiObjCode

group.0.valueformat=objCodeMessage

textmode=true

Hope this helps!
